Deployment Creation - Specify License Servers With Port Included

Deployment Creation - Specify License Servers With Port Included

When creating a deployment make it possible to specify the port@licenseserver on the Network License page of deployment creation instead of just servername. Today if you try to specify port@server in the Server Name field and click Add it returns an error stating “Illegal Server Host Name”. 

 

Many times after we install Autodesk products we have to follow up with another script that Adds\Modifies the following System Environment Variables which includes the port@server and FlexLM_Timout.  Without these settings the Autodesk product will fail to obtain a license and the resolve license dialog will appear.  Not surprising this problem is particularly prevalent at our more remote sites where several “network hops” are required to talk to our license servers.  However after adding the environment variables the problem is resolved. Rather than running a script after every install, I’d like to include it in the deployment itself. At least the port@server anyway.  Adding FlexLM_Timout would be a bonus.

 

  • ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE = port@server1;port@server2
  • FLEXLM_TIMEOUT = 2000000
